in Australia, about 23% have downloaded the CovidSafe tracing app, and the numbers have stalled. Govt says 40% needed for tracing to be effective. huge PR push got the first few million on board. many people have no intention of joining in, especially as, if u r told u have been in close proximity with some unnamed person for more than 15 minutes, you and all your family have to stay at home for 2 weeks. what???
in U.S., I keep hearing you need a 300,000 tracing army - nearly 1 tracer for every covid death worldwide. what???
FakeNewsMSM is on board. what???
21 Apr: Politico: Tracking the virus may require 300,000 workers. We’re nowhere close.
Contact tracing is essential to reopening the economy and containing outbreaks, but the workforce doesn’t exist to do it.
By DAN GOLDBERG and ALICE MIRANDA OLLSTEIN
Before the pandemic, state and local health departments had fewer than 2,000 workers carrying out contact tracing...
The real number needed could be somewhere between 100,000 and 300,000 — an astronomical figure that seems near impossible to reach without a massive national program to build a highly trained public health workforce...
Using test results and in some cases, just hours of training, the newly drafted workers must interview infected people, identify those with whom they’ve come into contact and convince those people to self-quarantine. The recruits will be tracking a stealthy disease many times more virulent than the flu that can be transmitted before people show symptoms.
“Learning contact tracing is not easy,” said Tom Frieden, the former CDC director and New York City health commissioner. “Training is very important. Listening to someone, understanding their concerns, helping them remember.”...
Senate Democrats last week proposed a plan to spend $30 billion on measures like disease surveillance and contact tracing. Sens. Ed Markey and Chris Van Hollen have a separate plan that would expand FEMA and Americorps to bolster contact tracing efforts in the states...
There are also concerns that the rush to deploy workers will overlook minority communities that have been hit especially hard during the pandemic and may not be getting enough resources because of inadequate data collection...

I don't think I've ever seen a triple like that before!
Spooky!
Must be important! *Reading...*
Yup! Scary Business!
One best protect themselves from contact with these
soon to be Fema Camp Tagger Empowered Derps.
AKA:
The Possibly Terminal Contagious Contract Contact People
Tracers. (PTCCCPT's for short.)
Tag, you're it for my quota today...
No known relation to FPPE's (Flying Purple People Eaters)
But far, FAR more dangerous to a Nation's Liberty, and
possibly YOURS.
Maybe if you can keep from getting sick you won't be
telling those "One Day, in FEMA Camp" stories.
Trust your Dr. (Unless he's trying to sell you an
untested drug like Remdisivir.)
